Abstract
A motor vehicle includes side sills that are disposed in pairs on the right and left sides of the motor vehicle and that has bag-shaped cross-sections when viewed from the front of the motor vehicle and a floor panel that constitutes bottoms of at least a passenger compartment and that is coupled to the side sills. The motor vehicle further includes a battery panel that is disposed below the floor panel so as to support batteries and that is coupled to the side sills and a battery movement allowance mechanism that allows movement of the batteries toward the inside of the side sills when the batteries are moved to one side in a vehicle-width direction and, consequently, a load from the batteries is applied to the side sills.
